Date:10/6/2008

Design Concept of Other Product - Company's Bioabsorbable Stent - Also Slated for Presentation at Symposium

HONG KONG, Oct. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Data from multiple clinical trials of the world's first pro-healing stent, OrbusNeich's Genous Bio-engineered R stent, will be presented next week at the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics symposium, TCT 2008, in Washington, D.C.

Robbert de Winter, M.D., Ph.D., of the Academic Medical Center in Amsterdam will provide a Genous clinical program update in an oral presentation at 4:10 p.m. EDT on Oct. 13 in Ballroom C at the Washington Convention Center. His presentation will include interim follow-up data from e-HEALING, a monitored, multi-center, worldwide (outside the United States) prospective registry with 5,000 enrolled patients.

In addition, de Winter and his colleagues will provide one-year follow-up data in an electronic poster that will be available for download and viewing throughout the convention center. Titled "One-year Clinical Outcome of a Real World Experience in Patients Treated with a Genous EPC Capturing Stent," the poster will reflect the use of the Genous stent in 236 patients who were considered to be mainly high risk in the study conducted exclusively at the Academic Medical Center.

Also scheduled for presentation in an electronic poster are one-, six- and 12-month follow-up data from studies involving acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients at National University Hospital (NUH) in Singapore. The poster titled "The Impact of Endothelial Progenitor Cell Capture Stent Implantation in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction: Intermediate to Long Term Clinical Follow-Up" summarizes the studies conducted by Huay-Cheem Tan, M.D., and collaborators.
